Exclude season from a list of productions

I am using php in a template to output a list of productions

$args = array(
'template' => '<div class="inner light-{{colours}}"><h2 class="show-listing-head {{colours}}">{{title |permalink }}</h2> {{thumbnail(show-banner-image)|permalink}}{{dates}}<p class="ShowListingText">{{short_description}}</p><p class="ShowListingText"><strong>Tickets</strong> {{cost}}</p><p class="ShowListingText"><strong>Presented by:</strong> {{artist}}</p><div class="BookTickets">
<a href="/show-tickets/?showid={{spektrix}}&id={{ID}}">Book</a></div></div>',
'start' => 'now',
);
echo $wp_theatre->productions->html($args);

Is it possible to exude a single season. The company has a season called hires which they don’t want in their main listing.

Alternatively would it be better to do this with a category.

Many thanks
